Abstract
The cart is formed of a lightweight, rearwardly and upwardly inclined frame members having a support for a golf club bag such as a set of spaced tubular members, and a bottom frame. The bottom end of the inclined frame is pivotally connected to the front end of the bottom frame. A handlebar is connected to the top end of the inclined frame. At least one large wheel is rotatably attached to the front of the bottom frame and at least two wheels having at least the spacing of the front wheel and preferably a larger diameter than the front wheel are rotatably attached to the back end of the bottom frame. The cart is pushed from behind, rides very smoothly and is stable on uneven terrain and stands unassisted on its wheels when stopped. Rotatable connection of the inclined frame to the bottom frame permits the golf cart to be folded to a compact configuration which can be stored in a flat, elongated rectangular bag.
